“Life can be much broader, once you discover one simple fact, and that is that everything around you that you call life was made up by people that were no smarter than you. And you can change it, you can influence it, you can build your own things that other people can use. Once you learn that, you’ll never be the same again.” — Steve Jobs

Here’s a quick roundup of things I’ve been up to around the web, and my other active projects.

More details to come in future posts, but a short summary of what’s coming for ACR 2015:

  • I’ll be speaking at on the new TechMed track at ACR15 in San Francisco (along with Dr. Suleman Bhana (@DrBhana) on Sunday, November 8, 2015 from 2:30–4:00 PM on Tech Tools for Rheumatologists: Introduction to Automation and Workflows to Save Time and Increase Office Productivity.
  • This will be followed shortly after by the annual #ACR15 Tweetup from 4:30–6:00 PM in the West Building Rm 2000–2002. If you’re unfamiliar with the Tweetup, check out my post from last year.

Upcoming Experimental stuff:

I’m in the beginning (soft-beta-pre-launch) phase of a new site I’m calling ArthritisProject.com, which I hope to turn into a more structured educational resource for patients to learn about their arthritis. If you’re a patient interested in this, sign up for the mailing list on the site, where I’ll push out updates as they’re available.
